RiOTING STRIKERS.
Cars Riddled with Stones and Policemen
Wounded.

BOSTON, Mass, Feb. 21.-There was a
serious rot Sunday afternoon in Cam
bridge growing out of the horse. car
strike, resulting in injuries to six po-
licemen and the Kidding of SIX cars by
paving stones.
The trouble began about 2 o'clock on
the Webster Avenue line, which runs
through the worst section of the city be
tween East Cambridge and the port.
When the first stones were thrown the
crowd numbered about one hundred.
One policeman happening to be passing
and seeing the likelihood of trouble IN
mediately telephoned for assistance.
Owingto the inefficient police system of
the city, however, the men called for
did not arrive for about half an hour.
The crowd had rapidly increased in the
mean time, until it numbered about one
thousand before the rioters We're dis
persed. Thirty patroln.en finally arrived,
and soon after six mounted officers gal
lOped in
AMONG THE MOB,
and did very good work, scattering them
light and left. Before they were dis
persed, however, the strikers and their
friends had smashed all the glass out of
three cars and marred the woodwork by
heavy stones.
The passengers fortunately escaped
injury. The mob was an ugly one, and
the police were very roughly used. Six
of them were more or less injured and
three were taken home for surgical
treatment. They succeeded in taking
to the station houses nine of the rioters
In very badly demoralized condition,
for the police used their clubs freely;
they also fired about fifty shots from
their revOlvers into the air, with the
view of frightening the crowd.
At night three cars from Watertown,
while opposite Mount Auburn, were
stoned by strikers who were concealed
behind fences. The conductor of the
rear Car, seeing what was III store for
him, ordered his half dozen passengers
to lay down in the bottom of the Car.
They did so, and were unlnjured, al
though covered by broken glass, as every
window was rlddled.
Colonel Bancroft, superintendent of
the road, refused to be terrorized, and
ordered the cars to be kept running I'M
til II o'clock last night. Mayor Rus.
sell was spectator OF the riot, and de-
clared it must be suppressed and the
road protected if it took a thousand men
to do it. The police OF the city are no.
toriously inefficient, and the city will
have heavy bill to settle, as it will be
liable to the railroad company for the
damage done to its cars. Much indigna-
ton is manifested among decent citizens
to-day over this exhibition of lawless-
ness, and the Knights of Labor will not
be in good odUr here hereafter, as they
are known to be at the bottom of the
outbreak. The Cambridge and South
Bostoi companies have nearly all their
lines ruA uing to- day.
